the daemon stores its own pid in a file named by a unique service name, after it locks the file, if a simple getpid(2) call followed by an fcntl lock, then a write(), fails to write the processes's own pid to a file, then... then... you know what? i wouldn't be surprised. this is unix/linux after all, everything is an organically-grown pile of garbage :p

but if it's any indication, i've been running dozens of long-running slackware machines and virtual machines, for years, for personal use and businesses, and i don't know of a single case where such an incident happened with raf's daemon. maybe it's not too bad after all.

thank you for the discussion. i wish you an acceptably good day ^-^
